“Renowned film actor Mr @akshaykumar & film director Mr R. Balki called on Chief Minister @ChouhanShivraj today at his official residence,” it read.

Meanwhile, after wrapping up the huge launch event of Rajinikanth starrer 2.0, Akshay Kumar has gone back to the shoot of his next Bollywood venture, Toilet Ek Prem Katha. The actor, who is shooting in Mathura’s Nandgaon, has shared a video on his official Twitter account, taking us to the spot where the film is being shot. Before the video, the actor also shared a picture with a tweet that read, “And this is your Captain Mr. Kumar speaking…can you guess where are we heading.”

Toilet Ek Prem Katha is a social satire. The film, which also stars Bhumi Pednekar, will see a couple tackling the menace of open defecation and aims to create a shift in mindsets in order to being about a social change in the country. Previously, a lot of advertisements under the government’s development plans have focussed on putting an end to open defecation in order to stop diseases from spreading.
